file icon Finite Strainhot!
23.05.2006
Consolidation equations for vertical prefabricated drains which consider finite vertical strain of the soil are derived.  Estimated consolidation times are shorter when finite soil strain is considered, and this effect becomes greater as the strain becomes greater.  A method of proportioning composite drains used for lateral drainage is proposed.

file icon Flow Capacity Effect on Vertical Drain Performancehot!
27.04.2006
The influence of discharge capacity on vertical drain performance is studied by computer simulation. Effects of variation in soil compressibility with depth, nonuniform stress increase with depth, and discharge capacity variation with depth and with strain are studied and reported.
